Jennifer Reis is committed to offering a comprehensive and accessible Divine Sleep Yoga Nidra teacher certification program, that upholds an emphasis on education, knowledge, experiential practice and integrity. We seek to impart the ageless virtues and principles of yogic wisdom through our teacher training, retreats, CD’s and private sessions, enabling graduates to teach with care, aptitude and creativity.

The best part of the Divine Sleep Yoga Nidra Teacher Training was the integration of yogic wisdom with the knowledge and opportunities to practice. I felt like this training was truly multi-dimensional and well integrated. The sessions to practice postures and Divine Sleep built up knowledge from slides and manual. Then the practice time to create and deliver scripts was developed incrementally and reinforced through all the above that it really came together for me. I leave with a fuller appreciation of myself as a whole being.

It all flowed! I loved the direct participation and opportunity to experience Divine Sleep Yoga Nidra. Jennifer leads with grace, poetry and a voice that alone takes you five koshas down! She is very gifted and modest about it. I am excited to apply this to my practice with cancer and Parkinson students.

It was my dream to bring Jennifer here to Ontario to lead our community in Yoga Nidra Teacher Training, and Aida Neves, my YTT teacher made that happen. I did the training for myself – I wanted to learn about this magic and how it worked. I wanted to meet Jennifer because her Divine Sleep yoga nidra has had such a strong and uplifting impact in my life. I love yoga nidra so much and see how much its changed my life and want to give that gift to other people.

I soon got all of Jennifer’s CDs– they are a blessing in my life – and began listening to them faithfully every day because this practice helped me so much. The amazing thing is we are handling insomnia without the use of any drugs — and that alone has made yoga nidra a savior in my life.
